I just have to say that last nights wod played with my mind! I tried so hard to get the mechanics down for the cleans and it continued to get more difficult. Jess, heather, sabrina, Lina and I think it was Robin KILLED the workout! I was very impressed by their strength. So, after several rounds of trying to perfect this movement I had Phil, Blake and Cody trying to give me advice...Phil decided to crank up the tunes and I had such a great support group cheering me on that I FINALLY felt like I was making progress! All I have to say is CROSSFIT ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!

btw...did blake and phil "commit" to 205????

I liked the workout today. Seemed really short.

I was jealous that I saw 205 on the board this morning and my name wasn't by it. So I did a 5x5 power clean and ended with 5 x 205.

I was glad the trainers took it easy on us today. But that just means they will kill us tomorrow. Definitely looking forward to it.

Well I have finally graduated from Army Basic Combat Training. I will be heading to Ft. Benning, GA tomorrow to begin Officer Canidate School. I can truly say without Viking Crossfit I would never have been able to complete basic, but with the strength, endurance and speed I gained training with you guys the physical aspect of basic was far to easy. Mentally it was a difficult task, luckily I had friends like Fran and Murph that made me mentally tougher to deal with any pain or adversity.

I will keep you guys updated as I will have more access to a computer now. To all of the people who have joined Viking Crosfit and do not know me let me tell you that you have the greatest set of trainers around.

Also my favorite WOD during basic occured at 0100am wearing a full chemical protection suit(about 40lbs) and a gas mask. A simulated mortar round hit my platoon and three people lost legs( a scenario of course) I hoisted a 180lb soldier in full gear on my shoulders in a buddy carry and ran with him for a mile to get him medevac.

Moral of the story Crossfit prepares you for the unexpected in life so you are ready when the situation arises.

Rockey, it is so awesome to hear from you. I am so happy to hear you are doing well. We truly wish you the best as you serve our country. Please keep us updated on what you are up to and how you are doing.

Also, that is such a perfect example of a practical application of Crossfit and how it prepares you for the unexpected.

Take care and keep posting. Have you heard from Darrell Parsons. We haven't heard from him lately and we miss his posts too.

Congratulations Rockey! You are truly an inspiration. Keep us posted on what you are doing and send us some pics!
